But to the initiated there was an easier solution of the enigma.— .Thelpale specter, of death looked down upon them, and pointed with his bony finger, to the fiery tomb of the whole race, already looming up in the dis tance before them. Day after day I could see the dreadful ravages of tips secret horror; doubly terrible, because they dared not divulge it. Still, do all that we'could, theinoney could not be obtained. The'day preceding the last one giVen, Stinamerfield 'was summon ed the committee, and full infor= mation given him of the State of at-. - fairs. Obdurate, bard and cruel, he still continued. Finally, a proposition was started that an attempt should be made to raise the other half of the mo ney in the city of New York. To this proposition Summerfield ultimately yielded, but with extreme reluctance. It was agreed in committee that Isho'd accompany him thither, and take with me, in my own possession, evidences of the Sums subscribed here; that a prop er appeal should be made to the lead ing capitalists, scholars and'clergymen of the metropolis; and that when the whole amount was raised, it should be paid over to Sumrnerfield, and a bond taken from him- never to divulge his awful.secret to any human being. " • this he seemed to be satisfied, and left us to prepare for hiagoing the next morning. " As soon ai he bad left the apart ment, the bishop arose, find 'depreca ted the action that had been taken,' and characterized it as 111dIsh end ab surd. He 'declared tha no man was safe ens moment whilst that diaboli cal wretch' still lived ; that the only security for us all was in his immediate extirpation from the face of the earth, nod that no amount of money could seal his lips or close his hands. It wo'd be no crime, he said, to deprive him of the means of assassinating the whole htiman family,' and that, as for'himself, he - Was for dooming him to immediate death. I " WitliTan unanimity that was extra ordinary, ,t he entire committee coinci ded. " A great many plans were proposed, discussed and rejected, having in view the extermination of SumM,prfleld. In them all, there was the want of that proper caution which would lull the apprehension of an enemy ; for should, he for an instant suspect treachery, we tknew his nature.well enough to be sat isfied that would waive all ceremo nies and carry Os threats into imme diate execution. " It was finally resolved that the trip to :New York 161.10U1d not be abandoned, apparently ; but that we were to start out in aecordanee with the original pro granme ; that, during the Journey, some proper means should be Resorted to by me to carry out the final inten tions of the committee, and that what eve •( would besanctioned by the I all, and full pro conscience, atlOrded me= tbo proceedingid. " Nothing was wanting but my own consent. I asked the privilege of med itation for one hour, at the hands of the committee, before I would rendera de cision, either way. Daring that recess, the above argumentation occupied my thoughti4. The time expired, and I again presented myseif•before them. I did not deem it requisite to state the grounds of my decision ;*T briefly sig nified my assent, and made instant pro- Turittiong to carry the plan into execu tion. Having passed ou the - line of the Pacific railway more than once, I was perfectly familiar with Xll of its wind ings, gorges and 'priciPices. I selected Cape Horn as the best adapted to the purpo.qe, and the public, knows the rest. " Having been fully committed by two tribunals of the law, I make this final 'appeal to my fellow men through out the' State, and ask them confidently not to reverse the judgment already pronounced." Tioga County Medical Society. •The annual meeting of the Tioga Co. Medical Society was held in Bowen & Cone'S hail, in Wellsboro, June 21. 'Meeting called to order it one P. M., President N.

The delegates to the State Medical Society reported that they had attend ed its last session at Williamsport., and gage a full account of the proceedings of that body. An invitation from the county Com missioners to visit the county alms' house, was received and accepted. The report of the Treasurer was re ceived, showing a balance of $lB 50 in his hands. A resolution was 'introduced a n d unanimously adopted, that the Treasu rer be directed to.nOtifyi those members who are more than one year in arrears, of the ,amount of their indebtedness, and On failing to make payment, that their natiies be stricken from the-rolls. Dr. H. A. Phillips presented a care of chronic catarrh, resulting iu necrosis of the Wheal hones extending to the supe rior axilifiry. Dr. Robbins present ed aevere care of varix of both legs.

Every one was convinced that the . humane act of the county In . provir ding for the poor, was being ably car ried; out by the executive officers of the building. In the evening an address on tit " Piogress of Medical Sojence," espe cially during the last thirty years, was deliVered i in Bowen d;, Cone ' s hall, by Proilesser Allen, of Bradford county.— The Address was replete with facts and flgutes, evincing much study and re sear6b showing that 'the science of medicine has ,kept even pace with the other progressiveilelenees of our day._ After, the leture, the dining room oi the Cone House was visited, and the members of the socety, in company with their friends, d i d ample Justice to the Well filled tables.

As a lai , yer, he Would have 'been retained inievery case tried at the Ararat Qnar tei Sessions, or the old Ark High Court of ,A!dnii.ralitY. But he thre* away all these advantages and ; teak to agricul ture. For a long time the ground was so i.vet be could raise nothing but sweet flag and bullrushes, and these at last became a drudge in the market. What wonder that when at last he did get half a peek of grapes that were not stung CO death by .Tiiphet's honey bees, he should h l tve made wine and drowned his sor rows in a "flowing bOwl." , the tact is, agriculture would demor alize a saint. 1 1 was almost a saint when I went in to 'it.
